About

SVKM’s NMIMS Deemed-to-be University, one of the premier Universities of Higher Studies in India, has completed 31 years of its existence in the year 2012. NMIMS established in the year 1981 as Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies, began its journey by offering a masters degree program in management studies, a course of the University of Mumbai with an intake of only 40 students and 4 full time faculty.

Today, NMIMS is one of the fastest growing and the top, private University in the country. It has undergone a tremendous transformation since its commencement. Today, it stands as a large imposing University with 7 specialized schools plus two off-Campus operations, with an intake of over 6000 students and over 200 full time faculty members. From its temporary location at Bhaidas Auditorium, NMIMS has moved to a large complex of over 40000 sq feet where it stands today as a landmark in Vile Parle, an affluent suburb of Mumbai.

Today, NMIMS has seven Schools, two Satellite Operations and two Off-Campus Centres.

We groom our students to face the challenges of the corporate world with a blend of social sensitivity.

A very important parameter of success for any B-School is its ability to offer corporate interface for its students, which enhances their practical knowledge to face the corporate world.

NMIMS strives to build up industry-sponsored collaborative postgraduate programs, conducts workshops, seminars, and guest lectures for students to expose them to the realms of the corporate environment.
